Got Two Words About the Chicago Cubs?

You've heard the expression before, right? "I've got two words to say about that!" Well, this is the Patch version, coming ahead of the St. Louis Cardinals' home opener on Friday in which the Redbirds face off against the Chicago Cubs.

Starting pitchers are expected to be Jeff Samardzija for the Cubs vs. Adam Wainwright for the Cards.

After the Cardinals ruined the home opener for the Miami Marlins with a 4-1 victory in the team's new ballpark, and again ruined the home opener for the Milwaukee Brewers with an 11-5 victory, we have our heart set on a win for the Cards' opener at 2:15 p.m. Friday.

The Cardinals get their first home game as they launch the season after their 11th World Series victory last year. The nationally syndicated "Mike & Mike in the Morning" radio show will be broadcasting live on radio and television starting at 5 a.m. for the game, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The challenge for this week is to lay down some trash talk about the Chicago Cubs. The only rules are to keep it clean and keep it to two words.

So tell us this: "I've got two words to say about the Chicago Cubs!" What are they?
